Vistapocalypse Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 (edited) Hi Jody and Jaguarek62. The two Vista-related repositories are still up. The link in this thread’s original post is indeed not working, but the link in this greenhillmaniac post IS working, so perhaps Jody should edit the OP. But those are the Server 2012 updates since Windows 8’s EOL that are the topic of this thread, which isn’t exactly what bruno16757 asked about. Does Windows Update no longer work for fresh installs of Windows 8.0 now? Of course there is no “to now” for 8.0 updates (only 8.1 being supported), which is why Jody started this thread years ago! Edit: Looks like greenhillmaniac first mentioned “new link” August 22, 2016, so give him a break. Edited April 18, 2021 by Vistapocalypse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey relax a little. I'm not here everyday. I was just hoping @greenhillmaniac was OK. I just wondered what happened. So I'm not trying to get "worked up" I'll edit the first post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vistapocalypse Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 No offense intended Jody. It’s good to have a working link the first post.

But if you have 8.0 x64, then the updates discussed in this thread can be installed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jody Thornton Posted July 15, 2021 Author Share Posted July 15, 2021 (edited) As of July 2021, all of the new security only updates for Server 2012 (including KB5004294 and KB5004960) now will remove the Adobe Flash Component from Windows 8. I enjoy playing some locally run flash games like YetiSports, so this is a deal breaker for me. I'll keep you posted on my next course of action.

Jody Thornton Posted July 16, 2021 Author Share Posted July 16, 2021 I am considering installing an older Adobe-supplied ActiveX Flash plugin - one that isn't time-bombed that is. Then I can install the latest update that removes the integrated Flash. Has anyone tried this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jody Thornton Posted July 31, 2021 Author Share Posted July 31, 2021 Just bumping this thread because I wondered one of two things, regarding the latest Windows update: has anyone installed it, yet been able to get third party ActiveX Flash installations to work? I only want to run locally installed Flash content, outside of a browser. is it yet known whether or not Flash removal will be part of the August security-only updates? I’m holding off updating until I have a sure answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m content to say goodbye to Flash Player myself, but you might be interested in something that Mathwiz posted last night in the main thread on this subject: https://msfn.org/board/topic/182654-adobe-flash-shockwave-and-oracle-java-on-xp-part-2/?do=findComment&comment=1203135 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well this particular issue would affect Windows 10 too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
